Description

Explore a deep critique of material evidence in the study of manuscripts and early printed books. In this work by Joseph Dane, the author examines accepted notions surrounding print culture and questions the institutional and ideological foundations of medieval studies, descriptive bibliography, and library science. This book addresses the fundamental relationship between material evidence and the abstract statements made about it. By asking how evidence is defined, Dane investigates how information from texts and written objects can be used to support specific arguments. This text provides a necessary perspective for scholars looking to understand the frameworks that govern how we interpret historical documents and printed works.
